I've currently got a ped just for nipping about in London traffic, in the city they are great fun and quick getting you from A to B during rush hour imho

Mine does 88 miles on a couple of quid, costs me 15 quid tax a year and twenty quid insurance, I don't have to worry about paying for parking or parking tickets. There is no such thing as caught in traffic, you can't go wrong with one imho
Getting caught on a speed camera is an ambition rather than a problem.

Its such cheap transport in the city, I really can't fault mine other than having every 16 year old who thinks they are rossi trying to find out if their hair drier has more watts than mine

my dad had this outlook when he had a landrover.

my mate has a moped so i raced down a long straight road on my push bike and beat him

he could only get 34 and i got 38mph

we've all had peds,generaly its your first taste of independence and petrol engines,unless you lived on a farm,trouble is they are just to slow and that makes you take chance's pulling out into traffic,that plus the rageing hormones and impressing the young girls outside the school gates,those were the days...................

i was the same at 16, just waited to get a car, couldnt care less if i was walking! couldnt think of anything gayer than screaming at 30 on a step through!

Just remembered there is one that drives past my house everyday as he works up the road, and its got your typical 680Db fart can bolted to it.. and he keeps dropping the "twist and go" throttle so its sounds like hes got gears! lol, dont mind about the noise, cos it makes me laugh every day!
